Method

1. Slice the bread a third of the way down to make a lid and base, and scoop out the soft middle leaving the hollow crust. (Reserve the bread from inside for breadcrumbs in other recipes.)

2. Spread the inside and the lid with pesto, and layer the ingredients into the middle, pressing down so it is compacted.

3. Drizzle with ½ tbsp of the reserved pepper oil, replace the lid and wrap tightly in clingfilm. Weight with a couple of cans to press the sandwich. Chill for at least 30 minutes then serve in slices, alongside a cold beer.
